Steve John is currently feeling like a lucky punk. When Clint Eastwood isn't throwing people off his lawn, he's saving their lives. John found that out while attending a golf tournament in Pebble Beach, California.

John and Eastwood were both attending a party for volunteers at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am tournament. John started choking, so the 83-year old actor swung into action:

"I looked in his eyes and saw that look of panic people have when they see their life passing before their eyes," Eastwood told The Carmel Pine Cone. "It looked bad."

He said it was the first time he had used the Heimlich maneuver.

"I can't believe I'm 202 pounds and he threw me up in the air three times," John said.
